“The X Bar is Great”

I went there last week with friends and we had a great time, really enjoying the big patio. The drinks were excellent and the staff were very polite.

“FRIENDLY STAFF & HOT MEN TO LOOK AT. YOUNG CROWD.”

I'm so proud of X-Bar! Over many years, I've always had safe and fun times there with friends. Last weekend at Pride 2015, I had a great time with friends and family from out of town. We've spent thousands of dollars there over the years and will continue to do so. We're honored to keep enjoying great times in a safe environment. Congrats on keeping customers safe and happy during the 40th anniversary Denver Pride celebration. I hope you and your honest staff have a safe and profitable summer. My hundreds of friends and I will definitely be in this weekend to celebrate the Supreme Court ruling on marriage equality. I always refer my monthly visitors to your establishment for great drinks and a safe atmosphere. Thank you for keeping all customers super safe and happy!

“rudest most disrespectful bartenders in Denver”

The rudest and most disrespectful bartenders in Denver! It makes no sense why management keeps two of the rudest bartenders who have been there for years. The blonde lesbian bartender, who seems to work every day, is constantly rude, won't make eye contact, doesn't smile, and forgets what drinks she's serving. There are plenty of great bartenders who could be hired to bring new energy and remove toxic employees. My advice to first-timers or regulars: choose your establishment and bartender carefully, or your night could be ruined at X-Bar.

“Best bar in Denver”

A good spot for an evening meal, with decent food at fair prices. The staff is excellent, friendly, and personable. This place keeps reinvesting in itself. Fun atmosphere, nice crowd, central location, and great music.
